Review of Replacement lacing for recliner

The laces are too short (by feet, not inches) and the tabbie things on the end are too fat for the Lafuma recliner. As a result, you can't double-lace the places that were doubled-up originally (both because there's not enough length of lace and because the tabs on the ends of the laces won't fit through the grommets a second time when there's already a section of lace in 'em).

Oh, you can struggle for an hour or two to make it sort of work as I did, but you'll end up with an uncomfortable recliner that is stretched too tight and yet sags in places--think of it like a face lift gone wrong and you'll have something of the idea. So don't cheap out like I did...

And don't tell me I was lacing it incorrectly! I had a second Lafuma lounger on hand from which to copy the lacing pattern, and it just couldn't be done. When the laces on this other recliner wear out, I won't buy these replacements for it, that's for certain!

To be fair, these laces might well fit a Faulkner knock-off chair just fine. But they don't fit a Lafuma, in contradition to what the ad copy says above.
